Basically, the more > info the better. What commands should I run? I am not familiar with the "what is on my system" commands. I have a MSI motherboard with an Nvidia graphics card. The nvidia driver is installed. I did not test with "nv". FreeBSD FreeBSD 7.1-STABLE #0: i386 Steps to reproduce: run your second to last patch; upgrade all; run startx. I uninstalled xorg-server xf86-input-mouse and keyboard and installed the old versions. Almost everything everything else is the new version and it works now. I think xorg-server was the problem. > >> Also make sure to include xorg-minimal in the patch. I don't see it. > > Not sure who signed up to maintain that... It wasn't me... ;) I did. Except that I don't have a commit bit and you have a patch to upgrade to the newer Xorg which touches most of the Xorg files. I am politely asking that you add the version number bump to xorg-minimal. > > robert. > -- Eitan Adler "Security is increased by designing for the way humans actually behave." -Jakob Nielsen
